Join The
MITRE Corporation to work in communications, signals analysis, and positioning,
navigation, and timing

Do you enjoy applying mathematics to
real world problems? Are you interested in identifying and solving challenging
mathematical problems that form the basis for solutions in communications,
navigation, and timing?

What we
do. MITRE is a not-for-profit company dedicated to solving problems
for a safer world. Among our many work programs are large programs in GPS,
navigation, timing, and communications. MITRE has a long and distinguished
history in these fields including our contributions to the design of new GPS
signals, the development of software radio GPS receivers, the development of
novel satellite navigation receivers, the development of tools and techniques
to support low probability of intercept communications, and algorithms and
techniques used to reduce interference for receivers. Some highlights of our
work in Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) can be found here. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5eqS-dbwGc)

What you
will do. MITREâs Communications, SIGINT, and PNT department is looking for
talented mathematicians and applied mathematicians who are interested in
joining our team and leveraging their strong mathematics background to important
problems in electrical engineering. In this position, you will apply your
technical expertise towards furthering the public good by developing, applying
and evaluating state-of-the-art navigation and communication technologies, such
as:

- Next generation signals for communications,
satellite, and radio navigation

- Techniques for detecting, locating,
and identifying signals

Join our
team. We are interested in candidates with a strong mathematical background
interested in real-world applications and developing skills in communications,
navigation, and timing. We are looking for applicants with MS or PhD in
mathematics, applied mathematics, or related disciplines. Specific background
in engineering is a plus, but not required.

Attractive skills include experience
with MATLAB, Python, or other modeling tools; data analysis; and experience
with applying theory to real world applications. Excellent communication,
presentation, and writing skills, as well as the ability to build collaborative
and mutually beneficial working relationships with people of different
backgrounds, are essential.

Where we
are. Our department has openings in both of MITREâs two principal
locations: McLean, Virginia and Bedford, Massachusetts.
